Mexican Adobo Rubbed Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Lean pork tenderloin, rubbed with homemade Mexican adobo seasoning is perfect for the summer. Grilled (or broiled) this is a great tasting, smoky, tender piece of meat. Perfect with Cilantro Lime Rice to make it a meal.

Variations

• If you don’t want to make the dry rub from scratch, you can certainly buy a pre-mixed seasoning and use that instead.

• If you want to make this in the air fryer, cook it 400F 20 minutes similar to my air fryer bacon wrapped pork tenderloin recipe.

• To bake it in the oven, bake 425 F until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 F. Let the pork rest about 5 minutes before slicing.

Ingredients

• 18 oz pork tenderloin

• 3 tbsp Aaron's Adobo

• 1 tsp olive oil

• Kosher salt, to taste

• Instructions

  • Rub the olive oil over the tenderloin and pat on the adobo. Set aside about 30 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, preheat the grill to high, or preheat the broiler. Generously season the pork with salt.

  • Grill or broil on high until an instant read thermometer inserted in the center reads 145°F, about 20 to 22 minutes, turning a few times.

  • Let the pork rest about 5 minutes before slicing into 8 slices.
